Ok, so I have been told now that I leave the US on June 1st to start living in the Bahamas for work.. So I had a meeting with one of the people on this project and he told me he gets to keep all of his taxes cause he is not in the states for more then 35 days a year..
So, I wanted to look into it.. and I did.. and he was right!
The good thing is that this is not just for people who have to work in other countries; it's for travelers too! Here is the thing...
You have to be out of the country (USA) for 330 days in a 12-month period. The 330 days do not have to be consecutive. So you can come back for a week here and there.. as long as the days spent in the states don’t go over 35 in the 12 month period.
It can start anytime, it does not have to be in January it can be anytime during the year.
The cool thing is that you don’t have to be working out of the country to qualify for this. You can just be out of the country on vacation!
So if any of you Tpunks out there plan on kicking it ghetto fab out side the US for over 330 days then I would look into this!
If you want more info you can go to the IRS site or just click

Hope this helps someone out!
It will give me over $10,000 .. so really it will pay for all my personal travel this next year.. awesome!
